Message from the Director
This is my favorite time of year. Fresh air, fall scents, and kids are back in school. For us this means our food day at East Aurora High School begins again, student groups return to volunteer and garden harvest are bountiful. It also means that vacations slowdown ( oops, did I really say that) with this I mean volunteers return regularly. 

It seems we get even busier here at MWFP (as if we aren’t busy enough), we are always in need of volunteers. We do our best to keep our expenses down to maximize every $ donated by having limited staff and utilize wonderful, dedicated volunteers. If you find yourself with a few hours or more a week to give your time and talents, please contact volunteer@mwfoodpantry.org
September is National Hunger Action Month, we have collaborated with AAIFP to develop video series with community leaders in the Health and Nutrition Industry to be part of our videos for Hunger Awareness.  Please click here to view our first of three videos for this month and visit our facebook page for all upcoming videos and events. We hope to see you at some or all of our upcoming events listed below.

Sincerely,

Diane Renner
Executive Director
